Once again, our friend Chris Harris has gone out and done something that conjures up one feeling from this particular writer; excruciating jealousy!In the greatest grand touring battle of them all, Harris drives the tops to determine who is the best of the bunch and for what reason. In the end, what Harris is seeking out is the perfect GT car. One that thoroughly excites him, yet manages to be a proper touring vehicle that can provide some comfort on a long-distance cruise.Watch part I and II below.Do you agree with Harris' conclusion?Let us know in the comments below...EVO's Chris Harris reports: Geneva Motor Show Photo Gallery2011 Hyundai Sonata Launch Photo Gallery2010 Rolls-Royce Ghost Launch Photo Gallery2010 Chicago Auto Show Photo GalleryAutoSpies.com Photo GalleriesIf you want to see your photos running on our homepage photo ticker, be sure to upload your photos on the go by sending them to Mobile@AutoSpies.com Share on Facebook

Umm...NO! I respect the LF-A but the 599 will be faster from mid to high end....AND....how about the LF-A isn't even in production yet? So why test it?— SHOWTIME (View Profile)

Uh, you are wrong agent 00R, or at least Car and Driver says you are wrong. They stated that it is a competitor to the 599, except more hardcore, and it weighs less. The 599 is pushing north of 4,000 pounds, the Lexus is about 3,200 pounds. Both are high powered front engined GTs with lux in them, yet the Lexus is more track oriented.— Inline6 (View Profile)

You just nailed your own coffin.If the LF-A weighs 3,200 pounds and is "more track-oriented" it is only a competitor to the 599 in price point.The 550/575/599 have always been GT cars, albeit, you can take them to the track because it is a more performance-oriented GT.— Agent00R (View Profile)

LF-A is not a GT car, and the Aston is an awesome all round car with perhaps the best looks but look at the way the Bentley leaves the Ferrari behind in the beginning, of course cuz of 4WD in the wet but damn thats fast for a car weighing more than most SUVs!— Lamborghini_vs_Ferrari_Racer (View Profile)
